OPERATING LIMITATIONS Speed Given by speed range of the canopy used. Wind speed According to canopy used. Do not take off and land with back wind. Driving unit limitation Mode Max. revolutions allowed 7000 rpm for max.. 5min at a time Max.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES Engine failure (in height up to 200 m) lead the MPG into free flight in low height, land in the line of flight – try to avoid any barriers if you are high enough, land into an open area without any barriers, against the wind if possible Engine failure (in height over 200 m) lead the MPG into free flight...
NORMAL PROCEDURES All engines are tested before handover for about 10 min. We gave special attention to all joining components. All screws nuts and rivets were carefully tightened and secured by Loctite. It is important to check and tighten all screws on the cylinder head and exhaust system after approx.

Engine Release the petrol tank cap to allow equalization of a pressure in the tank. Tighten the cap again. Battery Insert charged battery (in the protective case) in the battery case in the laminate part. Check the main starter switch. It should be OFF. Then connect leads and close the battery case.
PRE-FLIGHT CHECK The following points should be carried out before each start! Check all parts for tightness, check all fasteners Visual inspection of cage and frame for fractures Propeller hub without clearance? Exhaust tube ok? Examination of exhaust rubber elements Petrol tubes ok? Motor, carburettor and tank leak-proof? Sufficient supply of petrol?
ENGINE TEST When starting cold engine, repeatedly pres the petrol pump, until petrol comes out through the air filter. Remove all small objects, which could be possibly drawn in by the propeller, from immediate proximity of the paramotor. Loos parts of your (and long hair) are equally dangerous.
REFUELLING Always refuel with the engine and all its electricity switched OFF. Fill the tank through the filter and check the fuel purity. Make sure there is no fire around the MPG, especially nobody smoking there. Use only fuel containers specifically intended for fuel.
FUEL AND OILS Use only fully synthetic oils for 2 stroke engines (ie: Mobil 1 – Racing 2T, Eurol, Valvoline SYNTO, SHELL ADVANCE ULTRA, PANOLIN 2 STROKE SYNTH., …) in correct oil-petrol mixture, which prevent combustion chamber and exhaust carbonisation. Do not store mixed petrol longer than few days, max 2 –...
REDUCTION BELT TENSIONING Reduction belt should not have more free play than 5 mm, but not lower than 2 mm. Loose the shaft nut (by special key supplied in the set), set the correct tension of the belt by the upper screw and tighten fast the shaft nut. PROPELLER ORIENTATION SETTING Set propeller to vertical position.

REGULAR CHECKS AND MAINTENANCE Regular checks and replacement of appointed parts in the authorization service centres are the necessary condition for demanding of the guarantee and warranty service. For replacing parts use entirely original spare parts from the paramotor manufacturer. By using unoriginal parts or paramotor sections the paramotor does not correspond to the certification conditions and its technical licence becomes invalid.
In case of any apparent damage to any part of the MPG, it is necessary to repair or replace it before the next flight. BE SURE TO FOLLOW THIS SAFETY ADVICE EVERY TIME YOU USE NIRVANA PARAMOTORS! Use your engine carefully. Disregarding any safety advices and incaution behaviour may lead to serious injuries Never come close or grab into the spinning propeller.
FAULTS AND SOLUTIONS Fault Indication Solution flooded engine the engine does not start manually turn the running, does not give a spark propeller 3 turns against normal direction of rotation If it still does not start running without the gas, repeatedly pull manual start or try el.
TRANSPORTATION RULES Completely assembled disconnect the battery the engine must be supported by the fuel tank and the frame all the time. It must not be supported just by the frame. if you need to secure it during transport only strap down the laminate part, never try to secure (strap down )the MPG by the cage check, that it cannot tip over Dismantled...
